Seeking some advice for first-time backpacking trip
Hi all!
I'm looking to go solo on a first-time backpacking trip and was hoping to get some advice from anyone who has any experience with this. I've tried to do some research on my own but it can be a little convoluted of a process.
I live near OKC and my current plan is to drive to Black Mesa State Park in the Oklahoma panhandle to camp out in my truck bed for the night, and then wake up early morning to drive to Island Lake, CO and spend three days and two nights making the loop.
I built this plan because I really want to see the stars, I really want to spend some time out in the mountains, and I have a crazy urge to get the hell out of Oklahoma at the moment.
As a first time backpacker, is this a reasonable plan?
Do I need permits for camping out on the trail?
If you've been there, are there any must see sights on the trail?
and lastly if you do have any advice about anything like gear or routes or even expectations that you don't think is talked about enough I would love to hear it! Thanks!
